Telos Freestanding Ultralight Tent (Past Season)

The Telos two and three-person freestanding tents will radically change your perception of what an ultralight backpacking tent can be. Sea to Summit’s engineers made it their mission to design a tent that is easy to set up and filled with clever functional features. Mission accomplished.

However – there are three additional reasons why Backpacker Magazine bestowed their Editor’s Choice Award on the Telos line of tents: Space, Ventilation and Versatility.

Features

• Tension Ridge raises the tent’s shape upwards for more usable head-and-shoulder space and creates truly higher doors for easier entry and more vestibule storage.

• Color-coded ultra-strong lightweight DAC NSL two-hub poleset and quick connect pole feet make for easy setup.

• Made for longevity and superior waterproof performance by using premium materials including DAC poles, YKK zippers, 7-series aluminum hardware and seam-taped PeU-coated rainfly.

• Hangout Mode converts rainfly into semi-open shelter. Requires a pair of trekking poles or Hangout Mode Pole Set.

• FairShare storage system: tent packs into 3 stuff sacks to split the load. After set-up, stuff sacks transform into gear storage pockets.

• Lightbar: add a headlamp and secure the tent pole storage sack to the apex of the tent for soft even illumination.

• Rainfly can be set up first for a dry setup and takedown.

• Includes 8 Ground Control Light Tent Pegs

• 4 detachable guylines which can be quickly attached to loops on each tent corner.
